How to save ready xml at server? Karma: 0  
My website has more than 100 thousands of pages, so sitemap creation takes more than 10 minutes. Browsers and bots couldn't wait so long for dynamical creation of sitemap, so it's better to generate it once a while by cron and leave at specified place at server. How to set this path and filename?

JSitemap Pro Version 2.0.3

Version of Joomla 1.5 and JSitemap 2.0.3 are very old and limited and there are no caching features for large sitemaps. Moreover a sitemap can contain max 50.000 links so you should split it before submitting.
What you can do is to generate and export the splitted sitemap in the Joomla backend and not by cron, then uploading the XML files by FTP to the server root for submission and submit the sitemap index file.

Any possibility of adding this as a feature?

We also have over 650,000 pages to export. It doesn't take long to generate the sitemaps. But it is a hassle to have to download it to my local PC and then re-upload it back to the server.

Couldn't there be an option to simply designate a server path and automatically write the sitemaps there?

Hope so. Thanks. -- Rik

Hi Rik,

The current version has the cronjob feature. Using a scheduled cronjob you can fully automate this process, you can generate a splitted sitemap with the index file.

You find full explanations in the pdf docs. Obviously you need correct server settings to run a resources intensive cronjob. If you need precaching, only the current manual download/upload it's possible.

Best
John
